Abstract:
Procedural problem solving is an important skill in most technical domains, like programming, but many students reach problem solving impasses and flounder. The present experimental study explored whether learners’ self-explanations of worked examples could be used to provide personalized but non-adaptive scaffolding during initial problem solving to improve later performance.
